Yes Jess, it fits!

Beautiful moment with Jess and Dev in their Eaglehawk backyard 💕

I love this photo from superstar behind the lens,

No matter what's happening on your wedding day, she'll be quietly capturing it.

Is there anything more quintessential than a backyard wedding in March in Victoria?

Adore this set-up for Jess and Dev's laid back nuptials yesterday arvo, surrounded by their most loved family. Some palettes knocked together, shielding the colorbond, decorated with flowers, fabric and fairy lights and one beautiful shady tree (look closely for a sweet little nesting box for some added whimsy).

After a stroll around down town Eaglehawk for some epic snaps with ( ), they relaxed at home for a bit before the party later.

I do's said, vows and rings exchanged, papers signed and bam, it's that simple!

at its finest!

MICRO WEDDING RECESSIONAL?

I love a petal toss recessional moment, and this is how to do it, micro wedding style.

After I pronounce you married, I invite your guests to come up for hugs and congratulations. We sign the marriage docs and then set up an 'aisle' for you - just like this! A beautiful time for you to walk through your family and friends, being showered with petals and love to start your married life together. 💕

Sometimes you may have my grinning face in the background watching you with my very full heart ❤️

Lots of our couples choose significant dates to elope, and YES, we love to accommodate that!

For Nick and Kloe, it was the 15th anniversary of their first date (when they were high school sweethearts ❤️).

5pm on a Wednesday evening in the glorious Gardens For the Future - also a perfect time for those late afternoon shots with (and if she asks you to toss your veil around, please do it!)

While everyone else was getting into the working week today, E and L were getting married!

Sutton Grange hilltop, vibrant blooms, ancient trees, loving bunch of family and a 'little white chapel' all watched over by the majestic Leanganook.

What a way to spend a Monday!

MICRO WEDDINGS ARE IN!

One of the biggest changes I've seen since becoming a celebrant is the rise of micro weddings.

You can have everything you've ever dreamt about for your wedding day minus the exhorbitant cost and extensive guest list. (and a perfect excuse not to have to invite all those boring cousins that you never see and don't really like!)

At Elope Bendigo!, our Micro Wedding package is our most popular - up to 30 guests, a lovely short and sweet ceremony, and 1.5 hours of photography - all for a very competitive price.

Here are Bianca and Dom at their micro wedding recently at the fabulous .

And sure, anyone with a decent phone can take some pics for you, but look at the beautiful composition and quality of this shot from ❤️

If you are thinking about a micro wedding, give me a call - I'd love to chat some more.

Kiarra and Lachie had planned for a romantic elopement on the river bank at Bridgewater.

On the day, we all awoke to a very dodgy weather forecast of thunderstorms and gale force winds, and all of a sudden, the thought of the river bank was not so appealing.

We threw around some options until Alli came up with this inspiration - the platform of the Bridgewater railway station!

Not only were we all dry and comfortable, but it was the perfect place for Alli to create some photography magic with shots like this (*stormy day bonus was that beautiful sky).

There's a lot of chat on the 'gram about choosing your wedding vendors wisely and then trusting them - at Elope Bendigo we will do all that we can to make your elopement or micro wedding something extraordinary!

BABBINGTON PARK
This could possibly be the elopement or micro wedding venue of your dreams - intimate chapel bathed in perfect light, surrounded by ancient gums, stone walls, hedges, flowers and abundance everywhere. A Macedon Ranges gem.
Can't wait to share more beautiful photos from the talented Carmen Bunting 💚💚💚

GETTING MARRIED WHEN YOU HAVE A YOUNG BABY........

When baby Houston was born, Jana put off the idea of getting married as she thought it was just TOO HARD!

Partner Trent had a bright idea though - hire a romantic B'nB and call in Elope Bendigo!

It was relaxed, intimate, and fuss-free. And baby was perfect throughout.

I am often asked what I do after the ceremony is finished.

I step out of the way to enjoy the few minutes watching you being congratulated, put on some music to keep the festive vibe happening, help your photographer set up a group photo, and then get back to the marriage documents .

I have a quiet moment to make sure every signature is there, every name correct. I pack up my stuff and then come and find you to say goodbye.

I jump in my car and usually can't stop smiling all the way home - another beautiful couple is married, tucked away in a corner of my heart forever - and I had the time of my life doing it!

Here I am checking over the docs at Matt and Elise's gorgeous micro wedding at Langley Estate, snapped in action by superstar photographer .

WRITING YOUR OWN WEDDING VOWS?

Some Do's and Don'ts:

DO
✔️ write in your own voice
✔️ speak from the heart
✔️ use a little bit of humour, if that's your ceremony vibe
✔️ mention personality characteristics that you adore
✔️ say what you are really grateful for
✔️ end with a couple of decent promises to your partner
✔️ PRACTISE, PRACTISE, PRACTISE!

DON'T
❌️ copy something from Google
❌️ use chat GPT (everyone will know and it won't sound like you)

In a nutshell, that's the way to truly authentic vows. I have a helpful guide and am always happy to help.

You're welcome!

Love this pic of Darren smashing his vows to Bernie, taken by the incredible for Elope Bendigo

MEET ELOPE BENDIGO'S NEWEST TEAM MEMBER

I'm tickled pink to join Sue and Jess with Elope Bendigo! I've been photographing weddings and growing families and businesses for over a decade - it's a backstage pass into the big moments of life, and an endless opportunity to create a bit of magic. I'm also a mum to two little, opinionated people and constantly looking for pockets of time to draw, make and swim. I can't wait to capture your celebration.

James and Lauren strolling up View St - this is such a fab photo from , totally natural and evocative (but so carefully curated that no one would know 😉).

As I always say, choose your vendors wisely!

James and Lauren chose the Micro Wedding Package from and got married in their backyard surrounded by their families - perfect!

Call us if this sounds like you ❤️

HAVING YOUR KIDS STAND WITH YOU? YES PLEASE!

This photo of Tyler, making lifelong promises to Aimee, is exactly why I suggest you all stand together, especially for a tiny wedding or elopement!

Aimee and Tyler's kids were so excited that mum and dad were getting married. They proudly presented the wedding rings with style, and were certainly right there with them when it came to the vows. Check out that tiny hand of encouragement on dad's shoulder! Simply adorable ❤️❤️❤️

This is how I love to spend a Friday morning - with the very best people in one of Bendigo's hidden gems - the Gardens For the Future.

Reliving the moment through their gallery by is the icing on the cake!

WET WEATHER ELOPEMENT - yeah, no big deal! (About the weather!)

Today took me and Jess to the Oak Forest in Harcourt for an elopement.

Yes, it was wet, but we found a dryish spot under the trees for the legal words to be said. Rings were popped on fingers and the documents signed.

NO ONE CARED ABOUT THE WEATHER! Elopements are pretty quick and everyone who is invited is rapt to be there, so why complain?

Our Elope Bendigo couples are the best! And Jess and I are super flexible to go with whatever they want.

Call us to chat about epic elopements in Central Vic ❤️❤️

I had to stop on my way home to capture the gorgeousness of autumn in the Harcourt valley, with Leanganook () rising majestically through the mist.
